AATU 80/20 Chicken - review & rating
Is AATU 80/20 Chicken a good choice?
Single-protein, 80/20 recipe built on named free-run chicken with a long list of botanicals. Strong choice for elimination-style feeding when chicken is tolerated. One of the priciest dry foods on the UK market per 1,000 kcal.

Pros
- Single animal protein - useful for sensitive dogs (if chicken-tolerant)
- Named sources, no grain fillers
- High meat inclusion (80%)
- Among the most expensive UK kibbles per 1,000 kcal
- Contains chicken - excluded for the most common protein allergy
📋 Hands-on test pending - this rating is based on label analysis and public manufacturer data (that is always how we score; a hands-on test adds photos, our own measurements and Bekon’s verdict, but never changes the score).

Frequently asked questions
Is AATU good for dogs with allergies?
It is single-protein, which helps elimination feeding - but chicken is the most common canine food allergen. For suspected chicken allergy choose a novel-protein or hydrolysed diet instead.
